The preliminary final result of the Burgenland state election 2025 is confirmed. The SPÖ defends first place with 46.4 percent, but loses the absolute majority. Following behind is the FPÖ with 23.1 percent, which is their best state election result to date. However, there is disappointment for the ÖVP, which plummeted to 22 percent.
Preliminary Final Result of the Burgenland Election 2025
The Social Democrats have not only lost votes, but also the absolute majority of seats. They now hold only 17 seats (-2) in the 36-seat state parliament. This would theoretically make a majority against the SPÖ possible - but a cooperation between FPÖ, ÖVP and the Greens is realistically probably out of the question. A two-party coalition between FPÖ and ÖVP is not possible: both parties together also only have 17 seats (FPÖ: 9, ÖVP: 8). The Greens, as before, have two seats.
NEOS and HAUS List Failed
The NEOS have once again failed to cross the four percent hurdle, achieving only 2.1 percent. The Common Sense (HAUS) list achieved 0.8 percent and also did not make it into the state parliament. Voter turnout was 78.7 percent of eligible voters (2020: 74.94 percent).
